We are present in the. Office some of us don't think about.
The Cuban presidents that persist. In using the influence to use.
On the campaign. In the U.S.
Specifically the but what you guys. Use it. As so we
thought it was relevant. To look for C. P division by zero point
zero but that. Was for. Political to the. Fun
stuff of being. Political. Because of
a little music we did see. The days that influence us with.
The sort of issues we're trying so we get the political stuff but just by this is
exactly. So. So I really appreciate your presence
here. Many of them while you already know. Dr Bassett but
for those of you. Improve the loss of people already.
Well those who was able to carry it to. You people did. Really respect.
And saw the best of us being involved. In music production capacity.
Not just in Cuba but the spinning world around the world in Germany for
a city. Living so his it's moved about.
And I think that moving about. So has
a way of influencing him giving you Piers of the lenses will see what happens when
you have your reference point well what are you
a bit and it gives you some reference point that you really think about. And I
think often how do we view the world. As
a way of. Not just giving those away the cycle that we will help people
see where we come from you know experience of Dr Bassett that comes with
a lot of experience. Not just teaching but into music. Industry but
also even though we wish it was again for us here he comes with a dog for
a few but it was
a good yes. So I think. You know. The.
Whole. Lot of us are talking not just talk the
talk was about.
Well thank you thank you thank you very much when I was thinking about this
presentation My idea was this but they had
a very very extraordinary title and that is the one you're going to be reading all
over the building that is another kind of rouge. Cuban influence and Jass
so is the same lecture is the same conversation with you so when you see it outside
the building is going to be the same thing and I really wanted to begin the story
mainly how music came to the US It was at the beginning
of the twentieth century although there were many musicians before dad playing here
many of them but in the first photo we're going to see this is of
a more the photo because you know sometimes they're not clear so you cannot
distinguish them Sixto and I don't even know you see more musicians in that photo
but that is one of the most legendary septet and sextants and this is the same
music that the well regarded nice after the boom of world always
a social club. And then many of you will begin to discover Cuba after that and then
the critics never agreed if there was
a real music or not but there are many different kinds of music but what are we to
such
a good hollow just players what he wanted to trumpet player were the lead Trumper
of many cowards in Havana and also
a member of the Cuban mother music August there was
a cradle era character so that is only really very important so that's what I
wanted to begin the conversation with you from here and be sad because they came in
the twenty years to wait to see in the US when there was no and viable restriction
nothing and simply the bands came and they may recording for R.C.A.
Victor that was one of the first regular labels to launch the Cuban music in the US
not only for demos of or not can call they took more time the national label but
the this usuals even better. And they said Guy is one of
the most important musicians in the history of Cuba and his focus from is don't
know any other well that is
a family band there are many musicians even two of them are living in the United
States and among the Romero was
a great conductor of the more than musical group and he was the first pianist to
introduce the piano in the chair and the orchestra us the chair and the august us
Argos orchestra the world formed with biologists and flute team ballast that is the
reduction of the team party and there was no piano in this band came
the man who invented Africa and just ingest whose name is Mario Bros the musical
director on but she drew on the Africa that was one of the three top musicians of
the moment that was called the mumble kings. But you don't there for
a cure pointing with his orchestra the king of Latin music and either of the rebels
who was also percussion it was a singer who was a balladeer he would lead
a Spanish frenzy Natura
a great singer whose recording are not very easily found I don't have any idea of
Tito now and this but I know that he's a great singer
a very important singer and he also played in Dallas he came from of. The same blue
were Tito when the was born so in the churning us you're going to find trombones
there are
a lot of diversity and there is also lost the pick us that we're not only balance
of fluid but they have clout in it and that's how Mario Zach came playing his
clarinet and after that he developed all his shops on the other saxophone and
became one of the most important live trumpets in the history of Jass this is Mario
very Your photo of the real man became and he became the drum patter of
Except you kill him don't because you see the Duke Ellington didn't play well so he
played with all over the rest of the band in New York City performed during our
recording and he also was the main arranger of my cheat on the F A Q And so he was
the king of Sophie he hired they are arranger but if you did know really well. He
said these are raining is not good and that will happen and he commission many
other things too they are forgiven did no last all their lives so when much of the
wanted to make a SEPTA to to Europe because
a big bow was very expensive model said you continue with your business and I
continue with my big bands and that's why the. Begin to band model was dug great
guy and in that band also there was
a very important singer who is known as no ass in the groups but she is the first
lady of Latin jazz and her name is Garcia simply Rossella there was the singer who
taught Ella figure and Sarah born to many of the singers who used to share the
stage with the heiress even so that I know many recordings of Ella singing pure
music but they really learned that music
a lot and they enjoyed it and said Oh you can so popular are that the the Seda
manager in the stages they said why don't you open with clue who's much easier
because I think much she definity I said I had less crowded and she was an impact
on the station and this is Mario in the night is there is something very important
in his history and is that in the US Maybe he made many many recordings but in nine
hundred ninety two
a German producer came to new CD recorder with his own band out of the
four of the most important albums in the history of Africa and jass and this is one
of them my time is now and that is
a very significant title I think. And in that band was one of the growers who we
now keep in the top of our queue and just his name is always an area that I hold us
and they the Academy really finish giving him
a Grammy Award because now you know him in this day he was nominee again with
multiverse that is a super album with all the big one as of last just
a new CD and then he only of Tina nomination I'm with
a clear Fisher who is an extraordinary piano was the Grammy winner but this is the
story of one of the most important musicians when we were speaking about I know the
role that is
a great title Mario sun never went back to Cuba for many reasons the Cuban
revolution the US the embargo the economy to extrusions and all that so that's the
reason why he never went back but they all wanted to go back the same as I want to
go there sometimes to see my friends and to go about with another energy and this
is. When you think of a Q.
And A ranger also
a great competitor but in the United States of America he didn't cater most of his
time to our range music. He was the man who made
a lot of sweets out of composition like Tanda or Manteca that nowadays
his song to the Far East is conducting that great orchestra that is called the
awful lot he just orders out with on a board on production us and by
a leader he has gold grew up I saw him crying on the stage saying I came up my fire
could he made a concert and saw a piano and there was a mason there was like
a if you're nice about Bruce talk of musicians playing there and
a play that night fantastical with all the great piano players and the Great
a group quietly so survived by his grandson's wife to
a Rangers and great musician to one of the growers and there is
a trucker who are the sounds of our group leader firing us everybody knows up and
finally the admiral software chicle of teen a Grammy
a few years ago this is of the so this is the the history of the many stories are
about the big band The Big Bang assist but they're really expensive that's why it
took to move
a band all around the United States which he said man is currently so difficult and
then we have as more come we have a trio but you make
a recording and you go to promote it with all the musicians. And this is Luciana
shuttle Horsfall Jervas
a live very few years in the United States of America unfortunately because of his
death and the clear. Some people say he was shot in
a bar Harlem listening to his Manteca he came from Cuba he was one of the most
important show men then since he was
a kid or player it means there's more to mother or other you play and has the
higher pitched sound in a car rolls up in a CARNEY Well he did not need
a microphone because his hands were strong Another good listen to him
a block away that was the savage of course he's not the only corner player in the
history of jazz there are many other important musicians not only Q.S.
Several Martina was
a Puerto Rican and there were many others and nowadays we have your body double but
he is one of the guys who say who put this seed to the reward of revolution in
music and we're here right in the United States of America was Mario was up the
person who suggested this he who was looking for
a color player for his bebop revolution Big Ben and I was shallow and that was
a great link this is
a ticket to New York and Manteca are two of them but there is also
a washer world that is the hot sauce that was version by Cal Tjader this is by us
and that is part of the great crossover between the music of Cuba and the United
States that is really very important because that was sort of the humidity.
And the. That. Grows and we go bigger the love is important
but I really remember him a lot and every time I have
a chance of playing his music in virtually all originally and first generally half
hear something that is his and mine take on the other you know recorder
with me to our marquee world peace.
But you think. Good this is the music of Cho both of rain shadow.
The music came
a rough because Channel was not. An essay and I went to the University of music he
was
a comic where nobody could play like him but he didn't have the illustration of June
Fuller who made the break for that song and he was this is who had to go in
Vincenzo shadow or going to play that way that we had to make it
a race that you know because Janell Blaine in go home to us that many of the player
were by leaders and there was
a guy who rode the horns the trumpet the bass and he was the guy who created the
ideas but he didn't know how to go on that
a big band like this so this is the room where Aunt and this is the mix and someday
the critic forget that this is your last three began playing the trumpet with you
and bands and the Great is all right that this is said it was no mean it
was Mario who were my teacher he's the one who sent me to play with Cab Calloway
cover model was that song the breath of cover and he said this he told easy to
morrow you're going to go cap five minutes before the show not six not ten
I am not going to be there you're going to play for me here is the here are the
papers and this is did and that's why. When people saw him playing at first sight
of the show you know he could so buy it because he was
a Jumbo who came from North Carolina you know and he entered the jungle that is how
musician called new city and to play in the jungle you had to have your chops
really good and he also played with an hour extraordinary musician who is
a flute player who is out but the last who was the first flute player who made
a solo in
a Latin jazz orchestra so that is what I don't want to speak about Q I want to say
the truth the quitted the rock are heavy and could play with longer Santamaria and
watermelon man was written by Hancock when he was
a junket play with Monk Oh OK thank you and this is
Channel this is the most popular photo as I said he didn't live too long in the
United States but the five six year he lived here he was something very special and
I have many or less
a conversation I had the pleasure to meet in person our McKeown in Cuba and he I
have all the recording he talked to me about channel in the bars when they want to
play from one city to the your channel play rhythms to cloud teria many of the
musicians and they everybody began clapping on top of the seats to get the reason
the channel talked to them. Was the person who has made of me all those knowledge
is where he went to Cuba very oh and then I got my CD because they needed beauty in
our version of Manteca with him playing the bass of the kids good Noel McHugh and
after that he play with many of the band like many other people because he liked to
play acoustic for the business you have to play electric to you know to get
a job in New York. And this is my Cheetos friend Grio who was
a great cook if you also listen to her but the canal you in the south the thing he
says Go moral go see now are much equal This is my sheet of the most important
marker in the history of jazz a very important musician who grew up in Paul O.T.
And also in Cairo was to have an isolated New York he came single with different
bands to the United States of America and one day he didn't get back any more and
then here Mario where family he modern Grazia where family so they
together found that much on the Africa and that has been the most important band
in the history of Cuban music and jazz and then all these guys have been revived in
albums like Angel that has. The say the good talents of an area
with them I had in the School of Music Africa and. That is
a very important band of young kids who are now the every level so the next
generation of music for death and this is in the middle of
them is where none this or fortunately die someone put the vehicle he was the guy
who Mario coal miner who is the one on the left I'm
a she was the one on the right it's
a very old photo but I do want to go here without
a photo over another when another was the arranger producer of the first two Grammy
albums of America he was the arranger of that band the African I
had many good piano players from the very beginning because Mario if the piece was
not complete he never played if you don't know the piece I bring another guy but
when the became hotter he can have on a seven A I need you when it came to the U.S.
And became the main
a range of cheat on the Africa us. And hearing from any other musician and cane is
a very important album that was recorder with kind of the alley on the other
saxophone and Joe NUMA from can base your guess on the lead trumpet so that is also
a very important part of the history of Celine and Africa and yes and this is Kenya
this is
a very important album with all the Droughns boys and I recall his kids from the
handing
a school of music Africa and yes concert orchestra life at the Manhattan School of
Music I was almost like
a German I just want to emphasize this is not the style to this is the music of
yesterday today and tomorrow here. Is the great Art Blakey once said
any place where jazz is played is
a sacred place so thank you for coming to church tonight thank you.
For coming up. Yeah but you know I always say on the radio shows
good if you go to we're going to put Syria at
a restaurant how are you going to say that jazz is dead what about this guy's jazz
it no music for all people we have cellars buddy who can play rock N roll and that
in the music for young people really is
a very old music too but I don't know why every them in front of us is dead.
And told me I go you know tour with night.
So is the information and that this information of the information you know
that they could actions are no more important than this guy's. And there in every
magazine when are these guys going to be appear in
a massive because downbeat appears every four months because there's no money to
pay them and then you have people selling sandals every week.
For magazine Jennifer Love. And all Justin Timberlake I'm not against that but it
speak about everything why the Grammys don't appear on television only cheap Korea
played I love chick I saw him in Burlington I talked to him for fifty five minutes
you know and he sent me
a beautiful lab and the whole house I played it this afternoon on the radio and
there was and always that began with the three oh boy you never saw
a jazz group played in the grannies they played in the in the theater but not on
the television and I have to see America's Got Talent Dancing With The Stars
American Idol the well is I don't see yes and then you see the best thing that
doesn't fit is the elimination the voice was
a criminal jury with that singer from Burlington Nicole and then
the single. Maru five better for a single three four times
a good that can see less than I and she passed some of the finals she almost gets
the first award and they're well great singers there even that black boy the we'll
see those part of his team he is the next Teddy Pendergrass so was happening with
the years of the people here and this is both an area Dancing with the.
Just focus of them had
a school of music I learned with rare form of Solace something very special when
people stop dancing in this double listen when just play began to make things very
difficult people do you know go to jazz shelves they went to places with dancing
the politician was famous when people played Mambo for dancing. When you began to
make very low rated things just began to lose credibility among the population is
not to make easy music this is not easy to play but it is sensible to the people
who can understand it you know you can make the best experiment of your life but
you have to make it all even for the people that's why things so famous so popular
he made
a bow with five American musicians he gave the king of rock and he has. Just
players even his bass player is now the bass player of the Rolling Stones that are
Jones who was
a member of my Then his band so the that is very important when the sinfully London
Symphony is going to make
a profit they biased in the sea and there are lots of Brit this singers in the
opera but this thing is the one to bring the kids who play the tickets.
And this is
a good photo of the United Nations orchestra which is the Pan American mission
of this if you're less peace with all the allies and own allies and the League of
people in the world that is
a very important band and you see this is the great Brazilian Trumper me to believe
it was one of the most important a luminous in the history of this ability this is
a very important band he is
a follower of the man bookies and the founder of the bebop revolution Bobby wore
how bought in the same thing it came over from the same cradle.
This is where the teacher went in he will bore in
a barrel and Tonio and that's the point the junior and he began to play to ballast
in the machine on the F A Q Was there he learned the chops he went to Cuba to
Missoula grew and she was younger there and they were always very good friends
there is
a film that is going to Glover that I recall made it to all of you in Cuba I was
never seen totally. I went to
a movie with they say capacity for eight hundred people and we were only five and I
saw him
a return of fourteen times when Packie took him to play in Burlington Alice Stewart
presented part of the film with the Pan Americana suite and that was
a very necessary film because most of all these leisure were almost closed to go to
heaven and there was a good idea to to have in that theme by all this who is now
a celebrity who was to play in the bars of Sweden the son of future all this and
they appear Oh God Oh Barberry she go far of many of the people and this is the
balustrade and he's the one who put that imbalance from the back of the station to
the front and that he made that instrument. And it's
a way that everybody wants to learn how to play it and this is the old Tito Puente
and really very sorry that we were presenting in Havana Cuba and in
a just what I used to work we were making it through
a digital point and he died two days before we were going to be said no it doesn't
matter to embellish here and to the point is going to be with us we're going to
make a bridge for him every time there was really
a very sad news but he was very intelligent he became one of the most important
musicians of the. Funny all the stars he not only was in the side of
jackass he was in the side of everything in the tribute to the Beatles little point
to play to embarrass him bipes. I know those songs were terraforming to suss out
very beautiful arrangements is the tropic
a tribute to the Beatles if you want to hear that we really are passing the full on
the Hill is fantastic up and also the unseen society is
a bank created by many musicians were merely pointing one of his daughters is the
one of the single she makes a grave versions of night and day and if you listen to
a live recording is a funnel
a star and you listen to him which you Vonnie Doug Andrea Redell and the three
piano players of power Mary Bubba Luca Larry Harlowe those are recording to have
close to your bed and this is Mr Tito Reus He also played in Dallas he was
a very cute guy we had to recognize that he was the most cutest thing in those days
and that also drives the ladies to the shows which is very important to the world
not so cute so that was the rivalry and then you had to another two Tito.
You're going to say Tito this and Tito that is at the two Tito's are going to be
here tonight because both were group players and they are both a product of
a barrio a very important area a new city where there is
a community of nickel away says Puerto Ricans Haitians people from all over the
world and that is the cradle of this great music and there is also
a very important documentary that is called the poly the on where the mumble was
kin I recommended to all of you it's almost three hours and everybody speaking
there. Speaking about all the members and everything and this is
metal but the circle Rask I served that include our nobody knows him because he
came to the US like all the other musicians in the forty's he never went back but
his music will know when they're So I have been speaking to many food place and
nobody knows him. He was a great band leader and this guy is the first to record
a solo with his flute in Aladdin just focus on his albums are really great I have
got two of them it is. Three nose and fruits with no Wallace on the piano the
reporter rhythm pianist is something really beautiful but he plays tango he plays
jazz you play sharing everything the album which is really delicious and he is
a person who also contribute to the formation of this ability as
a trumpet player which was really very important to sort of us taking him out of
a Security is one of my missions because the fluid in Cuba music is like the guitar
in rock N roll if you have a chair and you don't have
a good through play or don't go to play you need to have
a guy who really blows so that's the one the moves the crowd the pianist that
involve them be OK The bass player keep the body appeared on the fruit they have to
be first class and this is Mr Knight can call now Good girl
good have been as good piano player as of Scott Peterson or she Korea or he decided
to be
a singer and he became one of the most important piano with his
trio I have read three biographies of not can call he has
a brother whose name is Freddie called dad due to the gents they have
a very similar boys and then the critics cannot speak about Freddie they always say
that he sings like his brother Nat King Cole and that is
a misconception Freddie gold is also
a great singer it's important to Nowadays there is a beautiful. By itself
a girl with a Q. And A single living in the US now who made
a tribute to Nat King Cole him by her Freddy Adu made two song with him I was
playing that when you arrive I can play one song after that so you can listen to
both guy one thing it is point one in this is really beautiful. This is called in
Spanish before the cure allusion there was one of the causes why the
connection between the two nations continued after night in sixty legen go into sin
in Cuba the same as Francine our hours are born they they standing intro B.
Cana and they're not can go began to sing
a boy or girl he didn't speak Spanish of course it was all fanatics but here for me
is the first ambassador of clear music in the United States of America because
nobody near here knew what Chata shower was. The one who came.
To. Go into the town. He learned Italian songs in sign in
Italian French and you can see that in the I want to forget all about Natalie Cole
that is
a very important album in the history of jazz She made more than twenty songs from
the history of his far brother and there are more albums only one photo there are
more and it is more call in Spanish with music from all of America can do your
marrow national and dumb of the are just matter there are only two Cubans in that
distinction. He gave in the forty's in
a company of then since with
a guy go round the who's still alive Verio now like candy you can use to blame and
in the history of jazz he took the seat of Shana Bose which was once your very
important he was
a great friend of MOMA Santamaria and they together made many going to usual to
jazz and he was the third limping of the album called Keynsham and he's recording
with those kids as you listen to it he the con the player together with chamber
Borneo remember where he came to with Rebecca the Connor player. And all the
guys that is really very important and they are taking care of him
a lot because Candy almost been our nine to one but he's too plain and even when
you go in the wanted to record drum is
a woman he is the one who was called to play with you calendar which is really very
special I learned that in a film that is go candy or has
a fire it was Fame in New York and then the all salad speaks
a lot about him in Cuba nobody knows who's candy Oh when I came here I had read of
him but I had never listened to candy on camera and now I am proud to have one
important album which is this can be a hands of fire which is also
a film it was recorded live in New York and Miami with two different big bands boys
an area conducted in New York and the Cuban conductor going to turn in Miami be
forever who unfortunately is now listening to us from having who was
a great arranger and and the response of many Grammy Awards of many Cubans in the
United States her monthly for and this is most of us on the area have
you ever heard. Afro Blue the sun Afro Blue there is
a very beautiful version in the boys of a singer who is
a doctor in music whose name is Cindy
a fertile and she doing her album Afro Blue with lyrics with them by Oscar Brown Jr
This is something amazing and it is
a great band. Very important musicians in every track that is three or four
celebrities. To you the only one.
You.
Know
a. Clown
I know the
a. Levels
one is that it catered to the story of Duke Ellington which is really beautiful
Come Sunday and that is and all of those three don't just dance and music of ours
who was
a saxophone player roller for that song wasn't Doherty as you see here I was talking
to Chick about that his oh yeah I was going to you know want to play with all of
those version that was
a great experience and also help me compose Watermelon Man that is like
a pianist pianist composition all the pin is how to record
a watermelon man and even or Dane. Steps in the Billboard
charts in the version of Marty Chandler playing the trumpet so that was
a great song and it opens this can't believe with the best of luck in jazz
Watermelon Man. This is the proud
he the rear creator of the mammal even though and the R.C.
A said that he was not and has made
a lot to push the figure of cause shall both argue on both
a great composers Bach I shall wrote
a dance song whose name is my book. Well the better Prowl is the one who wrote the
mumble as
a germ and he lived most of his life in Mexico he never came to the
United States only came to May different presentations but this is the real creator
of the mammal the owner is a bomb bomb but the do that. Is a very diffuse
a dancing not everybody can does mumble he's the one who created that music and
also agreed on our style that is called then that is play with a whale of
a car gameplay begin to get
a good day but God did not try sent to Mars but this is why the was called The
Mambo Kings or that movement was created by him he was born in Matanzas the Athens
of Q.R.
He was the piano player of casino will apply the bow were among us and the warrior
was
a kind of player and there were many important musician Milito out there who was one
of the singers of Tito point also this is
a great part of proud but he lived most of his time in Mexico
a Member Number five maybe you have gone to
a disco that you Burlington you can listen to it by this guy
who bear who is an African listening to Ali He's a great singer but he makes
a discotheque version which is really into. This Mambo number five.
You can.
Do if. You like it. This is
a really good version of mom when Amber five. The putas don't go see
a does yes. Well about there is in there is a big. Boat they have
a does yoga David Griebel with these
a dark shirt does not bring more people to the show that is easy to be
a smart and this is part of proud with
a very affordable he's the real creator of the mantle and this is him he was
a show man Calloway see and then we make
a composition of two for Israel mumble is the REAL King of the map the older ones
follow his compositions and made all the great mammals. That is the key to the man
book composed by Mario son and his is at the mambo in book commercially everybody
says man bowing and he has Bush and so by George Benson was wrong cardinal McCoy
Tyner and as we know because right so that's
a beautiful song and these other funny all the stars I was only very special about
this and I decided to say universe sucked down as movements does what I always
follow me to breath from
a solace we're in people stop dancing they stop listening and then finally
a star is
a band you just play with fingers Celia Cruz and
many other guys who are there. Was a queen now on a chair of course there was
a corner of a grassy Ella Boma suits you was not
a very good manager Martin said no she's my singer if you don't put the money that
I say that she doesn't go to funny I'll start and thus was the right to sell across
. What is it all the single just keep on Mary on the piano problem. And
all those guys and rave I read those in the Congress this is
a photo of formula star and this is
a very important food player there was the manager my leader and producer of many
album for sale there Chris. These are the funny all the stars show Feliciano all
the great singers of funny or there was
a great great move to music and there was all recorded new CD They went to queue up
to play one day and then people said that they were playing all music no they were
playing cue music but the thing is that there was an all the development in the
island where out of contact but cheerfully Seattle where he made all the errors of
learning about the law he made them beautiful and these are less a thriller than
a two this is a great production that was made in Cuba by an Africa and
a coon but this Rego's No it came out of the balls of
a gram records but coincidentally this is Mr Rwanda solace
who later became the great piano player of one of it's
a social club and when the boom of one of these to and the Grammy of one of the
same label there was
a label in an apartment in London that is worse or quit they said hey what about
this record and they put five of Israel the radio in the European markets
and all these guys there you can see Bucky the Rivera here he was the
saxophone player of lesser three and eight Arturo played the trumpet one pollo
daughter play the trombone and they made
a big Charanga with the Bears bar and play with the blade flute is the rule seller
was in the piano with all the people too there was a great great great blues
a group of musicians in Havana and that African musician was really disappointed
when the albums he said I won these corps when he came back he will know what he
want so he left Cuba never came back again and then twenty years after nine hundred
ninety seven this you can find it everywhere these are the members of LA kettle and
wriggle room the Creator. But. I thought up
but these are the musicians because there was the band there was
a legacy where for sound with all the musicians as guests this is the one of the

between cell ruler car and we go now to San Francisco we're going to speak about
a lot in just
a few and just in the United States without mentioning the West Coast so there
really were
a special sea in the days of Stan Kenton and all those great artist John Stanton
has been
a very important musician in the history of America. He was born here from Puerto
Ricans and capability parents and he accumulated all that background to play with
my shit and sample that is one of the important bands in the history of America
where WALLACE Dr where Wallace troubled player of the Mr Peter as cover the band
and with the hues to my going to China and everybody else and he's now the
president of part of our records in San Francisco something really special you have
a question about him this is the core of one of the most beautiful albums I've ever
heard in my life the nature of the beat bushes of every new fire Duke Ellington
African music more and this is on there are millions of women in
Jess in Sweden in their market hall and in Vermont you have many news good musician
here a rhythm a little was also
a key role player for teacher when the orchestra the very border musician who had
made
a great contribution to Jess and the next fall is about one of the most important
as Congress in California and there you can see
a growing band bitter or it is Bill out on the ballasts member of the team because
at the end they dress a new city in one hundred seventy three also
a member of funny All-Stars and lives Eric who is one of the newcomers
one of my real good blues for Helena Plato before Celia Cruz and many other bands
here they all live there in South California under
a raffle she has many tastes in music she's one of the most important challenge
areas of new CD but this is the Harbaugh up. With the way
a lot of us who play the trumpet like nobody else can do it. And she has made many
recording with her son Sharon is a dance in orchestra and if you find
a mass in those figured out before flutes is full Canon just who is an all
important player Tony Grossman who the flute player. And the ball and teen has been
always pushing women for air you have to play without no we don't know how to play
yes come in and play and that's why they are such great musicians our days and here
we have a lot of great musicians and the there is
a story about the two brothers Challis the one with glasses he was
a very poor musician but he died when he was
a little bit younger so he is the hire of that big throne that had to do with the
combos at the end of the sixty's the same at the brewery many or artist all
that influence of Latin jazz in the combo's have to do with
a pond near your brother and he was accused of being
a communist because he will think you are Muslim big in America and his band had
the great trombones and flute with Mark Feinstein who could play both use humans
and that it all appears in this great mass in that now doesn't exist because there
is no money to pay it no commercials and more women in Jess how you have been
to Canada Toronto Have you seen Jane bonnet well before and
after night in another one if we are going to speak about jazz and Q.
Music we have to mention her when she went to get what she didn't know how to play
Q. And yes she learned there and in the first album you know that she's making
a great effort but nowadays she has to go to more than thirteen albums with Q
musicians. Most of them have been staying here and finding greener pastures you
know murdered our Canada I mean in the US or Canada with her she has
a band called the spirits of ANA which is really amazing analogy has
a new band with a new Congress she has
a great band in Toronto nowadays with the album embracing voices with
a great. Contrast which is more music downtowns always a biased is
a great band Jane bonnet and this is
a shop the voter new lecture that I'm going to us mostly to prepare it with me
these are the Joan kids of new CD You know this you know deafness and then this is
more noble era who last week was making
a piano solo concert in the silence and he's
a Grammy winner Aarti with his band new Q.
And As press I have the great job Anita's on bass very important Puerto Rican
artist earlier Franca who came to be. A really important musician
play with Tara Stafford are also with many of the band has its own trio quite dead
. Devil if we had the who now has
a record label called Dustin the soul music Giovani Their it was one of the most
influential alto saxophone together with Mr Steve Coleman who is the one who
brought all those ideas of hip hop and jazz and more with the fire elements our own
would tease who is now living in New York former member of many bands in Q.
And Spain and Boston is
a professor and also wrote an album that is Carol that obtained the lot in
just award two years ago and this is a photo of new Q.
And As press we love these guys
a few days ago his name is shall Florus and he's the bass player of the album to do
nineteen call with this other girl he was living in Connecticut. He had
a very difficult this is to survive and now
this is the name. Of your musician after the eighty with the Mario ball lift
you remember James Carter the president of the United States of America maybe
nobody understood him he the person who made
a deal to bring the Cuban families to America but they did not all Kong
and the Americans did not believe in him anymore because he's the response all the
more in
a bowl lift because the boys went to Cuba but they came back no with the family
what with prisoners mentally sees people on balance who are now in the in the Jays
of Florida maybe does a reason why he was not
a real act it but many of the musicians in the eighties who came here came you do
the Mario believe and from all areas but that was one of the main lesson axis in
that day there was the Peruvian embassy was open and the whole city entered the
Peruvian embassy and this is another great photo of the new Q.
And A press with tone worn out guitar who most beautiful soul is like the third on
horn of the band just voluntary he can play the
checker. And you can listen to that great music this is this quintet with the
greatest money party there was another great great great piano player who is living
here in the US and this photo is really very important this is and Ali in
Havana there is a hole in the handle more noble than I had been living in the U.S.
Doing seventy years had never gone back to Cuba he began learning the saxophone
with his father was
a great alto saxophonist and later his switch to the piano and became the
student of the Great in New York. And he went to Cuba because he needed to listen
to Cuba music they're not here and he compose most of the sound on the
plane he rises than in the album so I really think that is has
a grain meaning in the intellectual ideas to speak about
a musician so he needed the influence of his own city where he was born to continue
writing he had now six albums with number six you obtain
a Grammy Award nomination that is like a grounding which is
a she is less than thirty years of age and this is
a great trio this is the hip South Jass Have your heard. That is
a very inspirational movie they don't compose they don't rehearse they sit down
there take their microphone Jay Selina plays the harmonies heavy guns improvise is
a real great album this is done preamble and Jason Little has gone to Berlin the
many times to the just first two and also with Anna Coren the Piano Player of the
coin family and let's see in a in a in a country like Q.
Where there were no Bibles all see lawfulness cellphones to study is important
to remark how our friend should go how to go one of the great by was living in in
Florida now fifty years in Stockholm Sweden and also in Madrid where he recorded
this album it is called My place there is
a good album that I give to Joe La it came to play here and Joe look said that is
something extraordinary and is important because they learned to play on
a table there was no instrument so they make
a keyboard with paper to practice as if you were sitting in
a hospital yeah
a professor said if you're sick and you go to the hospital you make
a keyboard you're better you practice you don't have the keys but you can practice
and that's what they did and that's how they learned there was only one for the
whole school of music. And there's
a junior Terry and I would like to finish our presentation with
a check to check Do You Think You Can Dance America's Got Talent.
Yeah sure. This is the evolution of the great
music created in the fifty's the music that together will rock N roll revolver the
world maybe also does
a word taken to the to the ball rolls which I shot and this is just by his brother
they are four musicians in the family or five of the oil so many background books
use that is no good. You can use it.
Three steps you know you.
You.
You have
a question now I think maybe you have some seat tomorrow we're going to play the
whole piano solo Wiles' money because he makes
a great solo This is an endless song so you have any question you study music. But
it is nice to have the lecture Professor most
a very hobby sure and you have any question the ME afraid do you have
integration No why do you think that was.
Me. Before the.
World music really. Became popular.
Human. Is what happened with Cuban
music after the sixty's and going to see here. After the sixty's killer music
didn't go into the U.S.
Your music went to Poland because Cuba was is
a socialist candidate and because of the embargo that was the justification not to
bring people to play here I mean both can't risk and I'm going to speak against the
America and I'm going to speak with the Cuban government both are responsible of
the in communication and then what happened you go to see Russia are you seeing.
The Russian those pick Spanish and that's why haven't you all the talk you solar
go. The Japanese goes pick Spanish so how you go to sell
a million records that's what happened with your music in the sixty's and the guys
who were playing with funny all the stuff where Killen's were forbidden in the
radio in Cuba you could not speak about the literal import of phyla stuff follow
him now he died or where to he was from files does what happened why kill music
began losing popularity because there were no killings in the US yet they are aware
but nobody wrote about them you don't have to say that every go is Puerto Rican You
don't need to say that but people like the remark he's cute because he's led the
forbidden fruit you know there's no I mean you know we're not generally white
Levine maybe he's from Senegal maybe he's from the our coast he's
Haitian but he lives here again with a few years and he made
a million with long term or we say
a cruise that was forbidden in Cuba you going to bring
a one termer over the few years there is
a superhero things to put See here. So does one have
a you know and that's why I though moisten the tire that he gave for this lecture
is very important is
a no relation now today I arrive in Miami to love or go bands
a music there was forbidden in Cuba they're going to play in Coyote you when I
listen to people say speaking about aware that it will be
a Hall of prostitution. The street where people sit down there to
hang how the queue now you know so that will happen when I can again to Newport and
they played even those two rowers who ride the line and also the album said we were
used to listen to Sharon us with electric guitar but now we have an explosion
with four horns guitar but are drawn to him by Alice and a guy singing in
a very strange language because he was singing in Europe over his science Spanish
our money won't go and play with six but our what happened there
was
a row Lucia the band the recorder the were made of Ferguson from the Ask the musician
one day how can you read that paper so many no mater those who writes them are how
can you read that and you will not give
a go both future role and reckon time on books to make it more you know attractive
for dancers and that's what happened and then as I said all the musicians who are
coming now now they are allowed to to send the rebels to give and they are allowed
to be on the radio it depends is laid
a short too late. You have installed the ball is very quiet this is quite the more
you know if you are nice maybe they say oh it's OK. Let's play that music here you
know so that is what happened and is no where music where music is like
a label to sell the Africans. That there was something there was like
a market to serve the black people of Australia that they had no market for the
museum front and center where they had to be so and they had to be put in
a place and then the term began became popular you know does well that
the little my point of view in the International Association for the Study of
Popular music people there was
a great where about how can you say they were right the Chilean music.
Is where music is music from South America because you say we're music from
which part of the world is that music and that also happened with the exodus of
Chileans all over the world the languages spread and you had bands in Sweden plain
like into you Manning occupy you because Dubey came
a languish in Germany you could have
a truer Doura German singing in Spanish that was really really important and of the
question you have
a question. Ten years. Where.
You are just now is that his best or yeah we have and they say the explosion was
a big with these kids who are you are watching now living in the U.S.
When they were in Cuba they didn't have
a first to offer them because who was that how an international justice here and
one I DID IT director said We are going to make
a hole in half and they made at the end of the ninety's the Joey gas players
festival and now it's an International Jazz Fest you are in Cuba so I know
these guys are playing here it is clear the flute player is No He's an Asian but he
knows the language.
Yeah musician who went to Florida to play in the again they got to play and in
twenty minute a worry how on a plane in
a nightclub but if you're going to going to be supported you're going to fly
it's easier to go to Joe Biden in France now what happened when actually just in
America is probably are you going to burn his back you go to lead him and his pack
and you go to trumpets but it's just the promotion if you don't see them to be you
don't believe it I You see they are sick I just love it I love it I like tell us if
we do see CD or felt on the Grammys or any other thing the question you
have
a question yes. The Professor. Was
Here now look basic you a single name is while looking she was
a very dramatic aggressive singer and stage she was
a singer of Tito when dogs were booted I had to shake her for Syria because she
created troll in the places and she died on fortunately and
she has been like a nice after her death but she was a very good singer
a very good singer there is as
a filmmaker in Spain there are more who used in his films
a background of boleros by looping they are group although they are true and then
people began to listen to the loop again but she is very important like Linda laid
up Lena later was another good singer who was shot because of drugs but she was
also to the point the singer all the T.
The boy the singer how being pure on the many cans or Puerto Ricans but many Cubans
. Recently go in there for
a dollar day we'll go in there we should not follow your body out of this. Baluga
Yeah sure and more. HOME I'M ALMOST most of the way you created it remember
here. The players. Oh
yeah they are no more than a graduate boarding cue or it is not
a just cool because Joe was forbidden it could not be played and then people
because. He was fired. From the choir because he helped
proto he he speaks very low his very refined boy but there was no school for jazz
and then people began to learn from records and from the family from the O People
far is a great plan is a still life but there was no
a just now yes now there is and into Dude there is
a department of jazz in the in the fire and I was
a study that is go easy on the Spanish and the director of the the jazz
the promise a good friend of mine
a saxophone player and now he by Sorry buddy but they want the truth as you say no
longer. OK What is it he's living with.
It was no mean nationally. Yes it was
a lot about it. Because you you you get so salute visitor that you don't
want to. But I know there are other people you you have been here for
a lot. And so I want you to look me in pain if I
am.
